    I had a wonderful time at the wine tasting/tour. The tour, hosting, wine tasting & cookery class were all done by Jason who runs the family business with his mother. He was a brilliant host, very knowledgeable and welcoming. We started with a tour of the vineyard folllowed by the wine tasting - we tried six wines, all very different but all delicious. After this we did the cookery class. There were only 5 other people who had booked onto the tour with lunch that day so lots of opportunities to ask questions and get stuck in with the cooking. After the cookery section of the day, we sat down to eat lunch together and had 11 different delicious plates - the food is really good! And of course, there was plenty of wine to go with it. Highly recommend a visit.

    We picked this excursion because we wanted a low-key way to spend the afternoon after many jam packed days on a cruise. The excursion was perfect! The wines were amazing and reasonably priced & the food was delicious!
